Mounting and installation
The M200D PROFIBUS/PROFINET motor starter is comprised of
the communication module and the motor starter module. Only
the motor starter module has to be replaced therefore when
replacing devices. This saves time and money. The communica-
tion module remains as an active station on the bus and all other
system components continue running. This prevents downtimes.
The integrated plug-in technology enables far lower wiring
outlay: Connecting cables can be plugged directly onto the
motor starter module. The PROFINET bus is connected cost-
effectively using an M12 connection on the device. All versions
have identical enclosure dimensions for easier system design
and conversion.
Parameterization and configuration
All motor protection functions, limit values and reactions can be
defined by parameterization.
The user has several user-friendly options for the parameterization.
In addition to parameterization directly from STEP 7, which also per-
mits automatic re-parameterization in case of device replacement,
it is possible to use the user-friendly Motor Starter ES start up
software. By connecting a programming device directly to
PROFIBUS/PROFINET and the Motor Starter ES start up software,
the devices can also be conveniently programmed from a central
point through the bus. Also, parameters can be changed during
operation from the user program using the data record mechanism
so that the function of the motor starter is adapted to the process
when required. With the help of a PC and the Motor Starter ES
software it is also possible to perform the parameterization through
the local point-to-point interface on-site.
Functions can be flexibly assigned to the digital inputs and
outputs, adapting them to all possible conveyor applications.
All digital inputs and outputs exist in the cyclic process image.
All limit values for monitoring functions and their reactions are
parameterizable and therefore adaptable to the application.
Consistency with other products of the SIRIUS M200D motor
starter range and with the frequency converter and ET 200pro
I/O system is assured.
Only with M200D PROFINET motor starters
Thanks to the integrated proximity detection, the device name
does not need to be issued manually when a device is replaced.
The name is issued automatically by the neighboring devices
which note the "names" of the devices in their proximity. No
additional start up measures are required therefore when
replacing a device.
The new motor starter generation is characterized by high
functionality, maximum flexibility and the highest level of automa-
tion. PROFINET is especially recommended for large-scale and
highly automated system components, since the possibility of
monitoring the devices or plants with data records (statistical
data, measured values and devices diagnoses) ensures a
broader insight into the plant by the control room, and hence
increases the availability of the plant sustainably.
Operation
The motor starters record the actual current flow. Evaluating the
current of the parameterizable solid-state overload protection
increases the availability of the drives, as do reliable signals
concerning the overshooting or undershooting of setpoint
values.
Diagnostics and maintenance
Diagnostics is provided through numerous mechanisms – and
can be used as the customer prefers.
The motor starter is TIA-diagnostics compatible, which means
that when a fault is identified, a diagnostics alarm is distributed,
which invokes the diagnostics OB in the case of a SIMATIC
control. The fault can be evaluated as usual in the user program.
The M200D motor starter offers a large variety of diagnostics
data through data records. Its functionality is without equal on
the market. There are extensive options for reading out data from
the motor starter for monitoring devices, systems or processes.
The motor starter is equipped internally with three logbooks for
device faults, motor starter trips and events that are issued with
a time stamp. These logbooks can be read out of the motor
starter at any time in the form of data records and provide the
plant operator with plenty of information about the state of his
plant and process which he can use to carry out improvements.
With the slave pointer and statistical data functions it is possible
to read out, for example, the maximum internal current values or
the number of motor starter connection operations for plant
monitoring purposes. This allows deviations in the process to be
monitored, but also optimum initial commissioning to take place.
The user can draw conclusions about the actual load conditions
of the devices in his process and on this basis can optimize his
plant maintenance intervals.
The device diagnostics data record contains details of all the
states of the motor starter, the device configuration and the
communication status as a basis for central device and plant
monitoring.
With installation and maintenance functions (I&M), information
on modules employed and data specified by the user during
configuration, such as location designations, are stored in the
motor starter. I&M functions are used for troubleshooting faults
and localizing changes in hardware in a plant or checking the
system configuration. Reordering a device is particularly easy as
the result.
The integrated maintenance timer can be used to implement
preventative maintenance and avoid plant downtimes through
look-ahead servicing.
Another new addition is the TRACE integrated into the ES motor
starter software. It can be used to record measured values as a
function of time following a trigger event. This enables process
flows to be recorded and their timing optimized.
Local control of a drive is possible using the ordering option with
integrated manual operation. This is yet another new develop-
ment which distinguishes the M200D PROFIBUS/PROFINET
motor starter from the rest of the market and adds innovative
technology, maximum availability and transparency to the
system.
M200D PROFINET motor starters with PROFIenergy
Increasing energy prices, far-reaching ecological problems
worldwide and the threat of climate change make it necessary
for you to be more conscious about your use of energy.
Active and effective energy management is possible with
PROFIenergy.
PROFIenergy is a manufacturer-independent profile on
PROFINET, which can be used by all manufacturers, has been
standardized by PNO

In the PNO (PROFIBUS Nutzerorganisation e. V. – PROFIBUS User
Organization), manufacturers and users have come together to agree on
the PROFIBUS and PROFINET standardized communication technologies.
